Two masked men dragged a woman from her car in broad daylight and drove it away as she pulled up in a Birmingham car park.

The Volkswagen Polo was taken from the woman as she arrived at the Cannonhill car park on Russell Road on Thursday at around 4pm.

The men arrived in a dark hatchback. One escaped in the car they came in, and the other in her car.

Luckily, she didn’t suffer major injuries. However, she had minor injuries and was left shaken by the ordeal.

Police are now investigating the crime. They are asking anyone with information to get in touch with them on 101; quoting crime reference number 20BE/126985Z/18.

Similar attacks have happened across Birmingham in recent weeks. One driver was threatened with a machete and a ‘gun’ before he fled his car, and a mum was dragged from her car by carjackers in Joker masks.

It is not known if the incidents are connected.

In a separate incident on Tuesday night a driver was threatened with a baseball in another terrifying carjacking.

The victim had been delivering food to a home on Galton Road, Bearwood, when he was approached by two men dressed all in black.

Brandishing a baseball bat, the thugs threatened the delivery driver into handing over the keys to his Volkswagen Golf.

The terrified driver gave them his keys and the pair escaped in the victim's white car and a black Audi Q5.
